Looks like busybox has been added to the system profile:

/usr/portage/profiles/default-linux/packages:*sys-apps/busybox

You could override this with:

echo "-*sys-apps/busybox" >>/etc/portage/profile/packages

But make sure you really know what you are doing if you do this.  My
recommendation would be just to merge busybox with USE=-*.  My amd64
system hasn't had any ill effects from having it installed.
